Have your weather preferences changed over time?

My preferences haven’t changed much, I’ve always preferred subtropical climates.

I used to really want hot average highs in the summer, I’ve dialed that back a bit, from 35C+ to 30-32C.

I used to want a little snow, but now I don’t want any. I’ll take more consistent winter warmth.

I’ve always liked dry climates. That’s never changed and I don’t think it will anytime soon.

My temperature preferences have changed a lot though. Several years ago, I liked very mild climates with warm winters and summers similar to ours. I then realized that such winters would be extremely boring and I would miss the snow so I lowered my winter preferences a lot. Then after spending summer in the southwest in 2014 and 2015, I realized I loved the dry heat.

My dream climates used to be much more continental. Imagine a hybrid of Winnipeg and Lake Tahoe. Hot summers and freeze-your-face-off winters. And they had a strong dry-summer precipitation pattern, not quite Mediterranean but close.

That was 2014. In the time since I've come to some realizations:

1. I only dislike thunderstorms because in the Midwest they are connected to tornado risk.
2. I only wanted dry summers because of the awful summer heat and humidity I've had to deal with most of my life.
3. You don't need -12C highs to have a lot of consistent snow, and furthermore, -12C highs are actually rather unpleasant.

This has led to a continuing moderating trend of my dream climate, as the average and record highs have come down and average and record lows have gone up. Precipitation has reversed completely to a wet, stormy (despite the low temperatures - dream climate magic!) summer and sunny (but still snowy) winter.

The summers of 2010 and 2011 made me a heat hater. I've always loved winter though.

Yes. I used to hate snow in winter, but now I pray for it.
Also I used to prefer summers to be very hot, probably around 35-40C, and lows in the mid to high 20's, but now I'd prefer hi/lo of around 28/20. I think because I'd experienced a lot of heat in my military days and from working abroad, I'd become accustomed to intense heat in summer. Now I'm used to spending my summers in the UK again, I've realised that extreme heat is a bit much for me.

When I was a kid I liked summer to be really hot and dry because I wanted to be able to swim all the time. I also didn't like strong thunderstorms and was scared of severe weather. Around when I was 12-13 I liked lots of rain. T-storms and severe weather began to excite me during college years and summer dryness started annoying me. For the most part I've wanted more snow and cold during winter, but for a time I was fascinated by palm trees and wanted winters similar to areas closer to the coast. Over the past few years my weather preferences have been fairly stable. But sometimes I'm not sure how cold I want winters to be; I definitely want it colder and snowier but at times not sure how much.

I'm more okay with occasional hot temperatures now, and a one-month winter would be quite nice.

Alright, my preferences in the annual temperature ranges have become more and more narrow compared to several years ago.
Because I used to grew up in a distinct four season climate, thought the idea of frigid winter, sultry summer combined with mildy to warm transitional months(especially April/October) are dynamic and very awesome to know the extremeness of both side then well-balanced in between.
Though I always like the oceanic climate from the beginning when I joined on c-d so I had put two versions of my ideal climate.
One thing that didn't changed is that overall the annual temperature got maintained 10~13°C.
I despise heat and believe it's nothing beneficial in modern society except for producing the agriculture IMO.
My current dream climate in winter is a hybrid of Tokyo+Paris+London, not too cloudy as the latter two and not too sunny as the former so mixing them together would result fairly nice.
For summer, I want majority of days are stay in 18~27°C daily maximum with occasional heatwave(30~32°C) but it shouldn't last longer than 2 days.
Basically Bretagne peninsula and southern England is what I like the closest temperature-wise, just a little modify for faster warm-up in spring season.
